Minor in Name Only: The History of the Adirondack Red Wings

by Mike Kane

When Ned Harkness enthusiastically predicted that Glens Falls, New York, would become the "Green Bay of Hockey, " even his most ardent supporters had to wonder whether his hyperbole had any limits. Adirondack teams have won four Calder Cup playoff titles and have been a finishing school for dozens of NHL players, coaches, and executives, including Adam Oates, Adam Graves, Joe Murphy, Bob Probert, former Winnipeg Jet Tim Cheveldae, former Montreal Canadiens star Peter Mahovlich, New York Rangers president and general manager Neil Smith, and former Los Angeles Kings coach Barry Melrose.
